F - Face Your Truth

F – Face Your Truth

In life, you know that who you are, what you believe in, and your character stands the test of time.  This is equally true for your emotional presence even when you are going through a season of difficulties and transition. 

If you make mistakes, you have a chance to correct them, ask forgiveness when possible, and express remorse. If you feel yourself stumble in life, you are allowed the space and time in your physical and mental environment to dust yourself off and put forth a correction or redirection in your steps.

As a beautiful silver teapot set, even when the world may try to tarnish your truth or identity, you are still magnificent – face that truth!

Don’t deny yourself the ability to be true to you. What is your truth? Are you walking in your truth and working through it?

In this season of my life, I am facing my truth. There are days where fears, anxiety, and even disappointment arise, however, it is those days of heavy storms where I dig even deeper and keep pushing to find my rainbow.

If you are not yet where you want to be what is stopping you? Is it you?
If you aren’t challenged, what is bringing limits to your life?

Perhaps these questions, seasons, and areas of confusion mean that it is time for you to take off your blinders and face your truth so that you can make lasting changes.

Facing your truth can bring tears, joy, and countless emotions. Without your truth (unfiltered and raw) you cannot become who you or anyone else needs.

Bible & Spiritual Connection
John 8:32 & 1 Corinthians 2:13
Your truth can truly set you free in mind, body, and spirit. When we can release ourselves from lies, shadowed realities, and blocked internal light life alters in every way possible. Even when we face temptation, God will deliver us and provide us a way of endurance and escape. Isn’t it great that we can turn to God in any season of our lives, face our truths, and He will always be at our side? Hold strong to your truth even if you trip or fall, as it will lead you to new heights and wisdom that was formerly untapped.

Be blessed and be at peace.

V - Virtuous Identity

V – Virtuous Identity

Think About It
For far too many people, it is easy to put on a show and make people see them for whoever they may be in one light.  Take a look at a platform like Instagram, people enjoy images of travel, children, nature, animals, and everything in between, but these things are only what people allow their viewers to see.  If you were to shed a light on your life and your actual identity, could people say that you are virtuous?


Turn off the show for the world and share your story and empower others; it may not be as exciting as other things, but I guarantee you that your virtue and dignity will not be eradicated.


Maybe it’s time to adjust your thoughts and get yourself out of your limiting bubble. Be wonderfully you! Be virtuous and dignified.


Do Your Work
Not at any point, should you aim for perfection or pretend to be something that you are not as that will only hinder your growth and opportunities.  In all things, it is important to be your true self and be willing to evolve and become someone greater than you already are. Your challenge here is to own your identity and keep a hold of your morals and values, regardless of what the world may deem as appropriate or fitting for you.


You know the person that is living inside of you, so don’t think you have to alter your heart or morals to make someone comfortable or appease the masses. Do not, under any circumstance, try to force your moral compass to change. If you feel like you are being a virtuous person and are doing the right things as you continue to evolve, your compass is guided you effectively.


Reflect
Growing in your business or in life (becoming “you 2.0”) does not mean that you have to change your virtuous identity. Honor who you are and believe that the goodness that lives inside of you will only improve your coming successes. If I would have changed myself and stopped being the loving person that I am, I could not be on this mission to empower and encourage others to become better and prosperous versions of themselves. Think about all that you have poured your heart into and how much those things have gifted the world. 


Own a virtuous identity and work hard in all that you do, and know that your hopes and dreams will become your truth and a gift to the world because you were simply being an amplified version of wonderful you.


Bible & Spiritual Connection
Proverbs 11:13 & Philippians 4:8
It is a challenge to be a good person, but the payback is substantial both in fruit and in the transformation that you can see in the life of others because of the work that you do. Don’t forget to be virtuous when you reach success or see new opportunities. The values and morals that you hold to be true will help to guide you in your path if you pay attention. Keep your eyes open and follow a beautiful and blessed path.


Be blessed and be at peace.

D - Demonstrated Character

D – Demonstrated Character

Who we are is displayed in all that we do, so it is important to know that the depth of the current version of yourself. Character is developed with time; social circles, family, spiritual beliefs, lifestyles and so much more are contributors to who we are as individuals. Something to be mindful of is the fact that just as positive things can shape our being and character, so can negative factors.

In many situations in life, I have been tested and even felt brokenness; it is not easy to climb out of that and hold strong to who I am but I know that it must be done time and time again. 

How do you challenge yourself to remain true and demonstrate integrity in a world that is in many ways scripted, objectifying, ego-centered, and filled with negativity? 


We must choose to be and live within our full greatness even when faced with an outpouring of negative circumstances; there is no other option.

Connect your character to your core, and your light and strength will never be diminished.


Your character is demonstrated in your work, how you communicate with others, and how you lead your life…so what are you saying is true to who you are? People of value and good spirit will believe what you are consistent in; they will crave and see you as inspiration and respected character. Proving your worth and true value is not always possible or warranted; remember there will be those who misjudge and do everything that they can to tarnish your good heart and character for their own joy or peace, so use that as inspiration to continue positively evolving and being magnificently you.

Bible Check-In:

Spiritual Connection: 
You were divinely created. No words can shake the truth of who you are. You exhibited character should show the depth of your spirit, goodness, and love that lives inside of your heart. Let nothing deter you. We have to use our developed character for the greater good at home and in the “field”. How we display our light will shine onto others and bless them if we are aiming to bring goodness to the world.


Be blessed and be at peace.
